• Entry requirements
  Entry requirements 240 UCAS points. This should include mathematics at A-level and preferably a science/technology subject, or National Diploma in engineering at MMM including mathematics, or equivalent qualifications; 3 GCSEs at grade C or above (including English, mathematics and science) or equivalent
• Academic title
  Mechatronics, BEng Hons
• Course description
  Virtually all mechanical systems rely to a certain extent on integration with electrical and electronic engineering whether it is a drive system, instrumentation or control system.
  
  Sharing the first two years with the BEng Hons Mechanical Engineering programme, this broad-based programme focuses in the final year on manufacturing systems and technologies with core courses in robotics and control and instrumentation together with a major individual project in mechatronics.
  
  The programme is designed to equip students with a broad range of mechanical engineering skills together with an expertise in developing the interface between the mechanical system and its environment using both software and electronic hardware techniques.
